I guess the kind of apps I work with tend to be more like Jeff's. Even with heavy leveraging of memcache, the datastore quota is probably my biggest limiting factor. Of course, you'll rapidly hit the instance hour limit too. On Tue, Feb 28, 2012 at 09:01, Jeff Schnitzer wrote: > On Tue, Feb

The obvious answer is to host your pics somewhere else and link them in to your pages. Not sure how you are arriving at your numbers but as Philip pointed out earlier, it is 1GB per day, not per month. As google states: >..which should allow for roughly 5 million pageviews a month for an efficient

Edge Cache does not provide free bandwidth, you have to pay the same price for Edge Cached content. The 1GB is a daily quota not a monthly quota. On Feb 23, 7:25 pm, Mark Ivey wrote: > According tohttp://code.google.com/appengine/kb/general.html#quota, > the free quota should allow for "roughly
